Abstract
Decreased risk of accidental gun discharge is provided by tethering a hunter'gun to the hunter via a gun safety lanyard of this invention. The gun safety lanyard generally includes a flexible cord having a preselected length and thereby establishing an opposing pair of looped ends. A first one of the looped ends of the flexible cord is attached to the handle grip of a gun's shoulder stock by means of a clove hitch, while a second one of the looped cord ends is positioned so as to encircle, for example, the wrist of the hunter's hand that will physically hold the hande grip of the gun's shoulder stock. A slide clasp is provided so as to adjust the relative size of the looped end that encircles the hunter's wrist. The lanyard may be stowed by simply positioning the second loop end in encircling relationship to the rear of the shoulder stock, and then adjusting the slide clasp to maintain the lanyard taunt against the exterior surface of the shoulder stock.
